Hey guys,
I came across an exceptional deal on winter tires on a local site, and didn't hesitate to grab the tires after comparing the tire sizes on the tire calculator. Unfortunately, I didnt take into consideration that the previous owner installed the BBK. I'm pretty sure they're the 300 calipers as they say Nissan on them.
Does anyone know if 15" wheels will fit with the BBK? The stock 16's are on now, and are working fine. I just dont know if I have enough clearance for the smaller rims. I would like to know peoples experiences before I go out and buy stamped wheels as well.
Thanks guys!

 

stock 16" wheels won't clear any bbk that I know of that use the 300z calipers. But oem 17" 350z wheels pretty much clear most bbks. Especially if you have 16" wheels now. OEM 16" Z32 Z wheels would probably clear and Ford 1998" cobra wheels would clear.

 

some SE-R will clear it

 

 

There is no doubt that the front calipers on this car are not stock. They say nissan right on them, which is why I assumed they were the 300's. What are the other possibilities for this caliper?

 

They are most likely the z32 300zx calipers. Theres a ton of pics on the forums if you need to verify what they look like, do a quick search.

 

nothing for the maxima that has 'Nissan' stamped on it. z32 kit only.

 

I think the mystery is solved. I had to stop by the stealership this morning, and one of the tech's asked me "are those the 300 rims you have?"
I guess its a z32 set up. So does this mean when its time to change my front calipers pads or roters, I need to specify that it's for a 300zx? what are the compatible years for these parts?
Thanks guys for all your help.

 

300ZX wheels will clear, assuming your running the Z32 rotor. If your running the Cobra/Maxima 13/12.6" rotor you will need atleast a 17" wheel. Your choices are the G35Coupe 17", 350Z Touring 17", 350Z 18", G35 18/19. Theres tons of wheels that clear.
